TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a system for providing a simulation ofhousehold items using virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)and brokering real estate therethrough, and more particularly, to thetechnical field of a real estate brokerage system which acquiresbackground information of the inside of a seller's real estate for saleor a lessor's real estate for rent through a VR capturing device,acquires information on interior property owned by a buyer of the realestate on sale or a tenant of the real estate for rent through the VRcapturing device, virtually matches the interior property to thethree-dimensional background information by overlapping thethree-dimensional background information with the property informationin an AR manner, and then allows a real estate brokerage service and amoving service to operate in conjunction with each other at the lowestcost by electronically using a reverse auction manner through a realestate broker server and a moving service server on the basis of theinformation.

BACKGROUND ART

According to statistics provided by the Ministry of Land,Infrastructure, and Transport, there were about 123,000 jeonse andmonthly-rent transactions in November 2016, and there were about 103,000housing transactions in the same period of time.

As young people who were born in the early and middle 1980s as thesecond generation of the baby boomer generation, which denotes explosivepopulation growth of the generation after the end of the Korean war in1953, reach marriage age and get older, the general trend of the numberof people who have actual demand for real estate on sale is expected todecrease (“Future population estimation-population growth scenario,”Statistics Korea 2010). Therefore, the trend of housing transactions andjeonse and monthly-rent transactions is generally estimated to be headeddownward, but for a real estate transaction, a buyer or a tenant shouldconsider the arrangement of his or her interior property, such as a bed,a wardrobe, a desk, and a table, in the real estate in advance.

For this reason, end users need to know specific information about theirproperty lists in advance and discover whether their property fits thesize of the interior of the real estate to which they want to move. Whenthere is an error in such specifications, problems, such as inability toarrange the household items in the actual moving process, may occur.

Accordingly, for convenience of a tenant or a buyer, there have beenseveral technical attempts to broker a real estate sale online via theInternet or to provide a simulation function for digitizingthree-dimensional information of the inside of real estate on sale andthen arranging a buyer's property.

There is a related prior technology “Information providing method forcost involved moving of online (Korean Patent No. 10-0372077, referredto as “Patent Literature 1” below).”

Patent Literature 1 relates to a method of providing information onmoving-related costs online and more particularly to a method ofproviding information on moving-related costs online in which a memberpersonally drags images of household items, such as a wardrobe and abookshelf, to a truck to check the volume of household items in realtime and a clerk of an affiliated service provider visits the member andcalculates moving-related costs.

More specifically, Patent Literature 1 discloses a step of accessing awebsite run by a web server through a member's terminal and clicking areal-time household item check button in an output main screen window, astep of calling an applet to move to a stuff loading window which is ascreen for executing a household item loading simulation, a step ofoutputting the household item loading window and performing a simulationfunction for loading a truck with output corresponding household items,a step of transmitting a list of the household items and the loaded formof the household items to the web server after the household items areloaded, and a step of outputting the received content in the form of abulletin board separately according to the member.

There is another related technology “Mobile digital model house (KoreanPatent No. 10-1186618, referred to as “Patent Literature 2” below).”

Patent Literature 2 discloses a model house which is mounted on avehicle in a movable form and enables a viewer to turn his or her sightsin a desired direction while freely moving in the space using a virtualreality (VR) technology as if he or she exists in a space which iscurrently present or will be present in the future and feels the spacewith his or her sense of sight and hearing so as to check house-specificviews, lights, and privacy invasion, and to experience a simulation ofspatial expansion and spatial modification according to occupant optionsand interior design selections, such as a finishing material and afurniture arrangement. The model house includes a display unitcontinuously installed along wall surfaces of the internal space of thevehicle, a digital chair for viewing which is installed in the internalspace surrounded by the display unit and on which a viewer can sit, atouchpad provided on one side of the digital chair and through which theviewer inputs operation content by personally inputting the operationcontent or selecting a provided menu, and a control computer which loadsand processes data stored in a database in advance according to theoperation content input to the touchpad and in which software fortransmitting image data generated as processing results to the displayunit is embedded. Three-dimensional model data is stored in the databaseof the control computer in advance, and the control computer causesthree-dimensional model data corresponding to the operation contentinput through the touchpad to interact with loaded content and providesthe three-dimensional model data and the loaded content to the viewer inreal time by rendering through the display unit.

Likewise, there is “System of real estate agency providing simulation byusing virtual reality and augmented reality (Korean Patent No.10-2000-0037210, referred to as “Patent Literature 3” below).”

Patent Literature 3 discloses an Internet service system for providing avariety of moving-related customer services, such as, when a customeraccesses an Internet system and inputs actually measured data ofhousehold items and the space of a house to which the customer will movebefore making a contract for a package moving service, providing aneffective household item arrangement plan by outputting a top-down viewfor the arrangement of household items, allowing the customer to decidewhether to use a package moving service before making the contract byapproximately making an estimate of moving costs, and thereby making itpossible to learn of various works related to a move in advance.

However, these prior arts only provide limited visual effects in whichit is possible to observe three-dimensional information of the inside ofreal estate on sale only at a specific angle. Therefore, a function ofoverlapping actual property and the three-dimensional information showslow accuracy in matching specifications.

Also, a customer is divested of a right to select a moving serviceprovider and a real estate broker because a contract with apredetermined moving service provider or real estate broker is forced.Further, it is not possible to provide a platform for automaticallyselecting a service provider who charges the lowest commission fromamong real estate brokers.

FIG. 9 is aconceptual view showing an operation in which moving service servershaving received property information according to FIG. 7 bid for amoving service fee set for interior property so that a reverse auctionmay take place.

As shown in FIG. 1 , a system for providing a simulation of householditems using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough accordingto the present invention electronically connects a real estate supplier(e.g., a lessor or a seller) and a real estate customer (e.g., a tenantor a buyer) to each other first and serves as an Internet platform whichallows the supplier and the customer to virtually simulate actions thatthey do offline, for example, from checking the real estate on sale toarranging the customer's interior property to be placed in the realestate on sale.

Further, in order to resolve inconvenience and problems of conventionalarts, the system for providing a simulation of household items using VRand AR and brokering real estate therethrough according to the presentinvention automatically shares household item information of a realestate customer's property with a server for providing a moving serviceor a connection to such moving service providers (hereinafter, referredto as “moving service server”) such that the moving service providersmay make estimates for a moving service on the basis of the propertyinformation without visiting the real estate customer and provide theestimates to the real estate customer.

The above-described internal background information of a real estatesupplier's real estate on sale or the above-described information on areal estate customer's property is converted into three-dimensional VRdata and shared with the real estate supplier and the real estatecustomer. For the conversion to three-dimensional VR data, a VRcapturing unit 200 shown in FIG. 1 may be used.

Generally, the VR capturing unit 200 may be classified into two types:i) a rig type used by professionals or ii) an all-in-one camera used byamateurs. First, rig-type photography equipment includes GoPro 360 Hero,GoPro Odyssey, HEADCASE VR, Scopic, and the like.

For the rig-type mainly used by stereoscopic image expert groups ormanufacturers, several small cameras or lenses are uniformly installedin one array, and images captured by the respective cameras are stitchedtogether to complete one 360° image.

On the other hand, unlike the rig-type in which several independentcameras are arranged, an all-in-one camera employs one or more fisheyelenses or wide-angle lenses in one body to improve the convenience ofphotography. Among all-in-one type cameras, there is a launched productwhich is connected to a smart phone using wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) andcan perform streaming transmission.

Companies or individuals who want to implement the present inventionthrough strong points of respective product groups can find an optimalembodiment of the VR capturing unit 200 with reference to “A ComparativeStudy for Virtual Reality 360° Content Shooting Equipment Based on RealWorld (JBE Vol. 21, No. 5, September 2016)” and the like.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the system for providing a simulation of householditems using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough accordingto the present invention may enter a real estate product of a realestate supplier, perform VR photography on the inside of through the VRcapturing unit in the real estate, and then extract only backgroundinformation.

Subsequently, a VR capturing section 110 included in a platform 100acquires image information obtained by performing VR photography on theinside of the real estate building and then three-dimensionallydigitizes the internal images of the real estate. This information isprocessed so that a real estate customer may view and simulate theinside of the real estate building by acquiring the information throughhis or her terminal.

As shown in FIG. 3 , the system for providing a simulation of householditems using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough accordingto the present invention visits a real estate customer, for example, ahouse in which the real estate customer currently resides, and the VRcapturing unit 200 performs VR photography. Subsequently, only propertyinformation may be extracted from the spatial information.

The VR capturing unit 200 is equipment for VR photography, and propertyimages captured in this way are three-dimensionally digitized by the VRcapturing section 110 and become objects that can be arranged onbackground information by the real estate customer.

Background information and/or property information may be acquiredthrough the VR capturing unit 200, or VR-processed information may bereceived and stored in a database in advance and then used.

The system for providing a simulation of household items using VR and ARand brokering real estate therethrough according to the presentinvention includes a background providing section 140 and an ARproviding section 150.

First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 , the background providing section 140extracts background information of a real estate product, for example,the inside of the building, provided by a real estate supplier andprovides the extracted background information to a real estate customer.The real estate customer may receive the background information througha terminal, such as his or her smart phone or a personal computer (PC)and, more preferably, through VR goggles.

Subsequently, using information on property that he or she has or willhave and the background information on the basis of AR, the real estatecustomer may simulate whether the corresponding real estate building issatisfactory, whether all of his or her property can be placed, or howhis or her property will be placed. This function is processed by the ARproviding section 150 shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 .

The system for providing a simulation of household items using VR and ARand brokering real estate therethrough according to the presentinvention may further include a background extraction section 120.

First, as shown in FIG. 2 , the background extraction section 120 mayperform VR photography on the inside of real estate on sale, storeinformation on walls, floors, ceilings, built-in furniture, sinks,lights, doors, windows and doors, system windows and doors, built-in airconditioners, bathtubs, washstands, toilets, and the like of the realestate building in advance from three-dimensional digital images, giveweights to such information, and eliminate other information.

The above-described background information includes three-dimensionalinformation according to positional information of the VR capturing unit200 and one or more pieces of information on the form, shape, and colorof the inside of the real estate product.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 , the system for providing a simulation ofhousehold items using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethroughaccording to the present invention may further include a propertyextraction section 130.

As described above, the property extraction section 130 may visit a realestate customer, for example, a house or the like of the real estatecustomer, photograph the VR capturing unit 200, and then extract onlyproperty information by removing only the background information (theinformation on walls, bottoms, ceilings, built-in furniture, sinks,lights, doors, windows and doors, system windows and doors, a built-inair conditioner, bathtubs, washstands, toilets, and the like of the realestate building) from the three-dimensional digital images obtained bythe VR capturing section 110. The property may include wallpaper, homeappliances, furniture, such as beds, desks, chairs, and bookshelves, andthe like.

The property information also includes one or more pieces of informationon the form, shape, and color of each property.

The above-described background information and property information maybe stored in a database 102 as shown in FIG. 6 .

The AR providing section 150 of the system for providing a simulation ofhousehold items using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethroughaccording to the present invention may include a property processingsection 151 as shown in FIG. 5 .

The property processing section 151 of the AR providing section 151 isan element for customizing the aforementioned form, shape, color, andsuch similar information constituting the property information accordingto the real estate customer's taste.

In other words, the real estate customer may increase or reduce angles,sizes, and the like of properties or arbitrarily change the form andcolor thereof and overlap the background information with theproperties. This function is provided by the property processing section151.

The system for providing a simulation of household items using VR and ARand brokering real estate therethrough according to the presentinvention may further include a broker server 300 as shown in FIG. 1 .

As described above, the broker server 300 may be considered a serverwhich is managed by real estate brokers or provides a connection to thereal estate brokers. A contract for real estate purchase may be madebetween a real estate supplier and a real estate customer through thebroker server 300.

As described above, the real estate customer may arbitrarily arrange theproperty information on the background information using AR.Subsequently, when the real estate customer determines to buy or rentthe real estate product, the real estate customer may determine andtransfer his or her intention to sign a contract for purchasing orrenting the corresponding real estate product on sale through his or herterminal.

The broker server 300 electronically receives the aforementioneddetermination and intention and may request personal information and thelike from the real estate supplier and the real estate customer on thebasis of this information. Subsequently, it is possible to sign anelectronic contract for the real estate transaction or the like or checkthe register book. This series of processes may be performed as areplacement for offline processes or to complement offline contractsigning.

The broker server 300 may be managed by external real estate brokers oran internal real estate brokerage center managed by the system.

The system for providing a simulation of household items using VR and ARand brokering real estate therethrough according to the presentinvention may further include a reverse auction processing section 160.

In this case, there may be a plurality of broker servers 300 identicalto the broker server 300. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 , the broker servers300 separately propose estimates of a real estate brokerage commissionon the real estate product to the platform 100 on the basis of thebackground information, that is, information on the corresponding item,and the reverse auction proposals may be transmitted to the parties tothe real estate transaction and, more preferably, the customer and thesupplier. Subsequently, the real estate customer or the real estatesupplier may select one of the plurality of real estate broker servers300 through his or her terminal on the basis of the commissioninformation.

In the above case, the system for providing a simulation of householditems using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough accordingto the present invention may further include a contract processingsection 170.

When any one of the plurality of broker servers 300 is selected by thereal estate customer, the contract processing section 170 allows abrokerage service contract to be made between the selected broker server300 and the real estate customer or the real estate supplier.

The system for providing a simulation of household items using VR and ARand brokering real estate therethrough according to the presentinvention may further include a moving service server 400 as shown inFIGS. 1 and 7 .

The moving service server 400 may be considered a server which isdirectly managed by moving service providers or provides a connection tothe moving service providers.

As described above, the real estate customer may arbitrarily arrange theproperty information on the background information using AR, and whenthe real estate customer determines to buy or rent the real estateproduct thereafter, the real estate customer may determine and transferhis or her intention to sign a contract for purchasing or renting thecorresponding real estate product on sale through his or her terminal.Subsequently, the moving service server 400 receives the propertyinformation used for the simulation (see FIG. 7 ) and proposes anappropriate estimate for a moving service, which corresponds to theproperty information, to the real estate customer's terminal.

In this case, the system for providing a simulation of household itemsusing VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough according to thepresent invention may further include a reverse auction processingsection 160.

There may be a plurality of moving service servers 400 identical to themoving service server 400 as shown in FIG. 9 .

When there are a plurality of moving service servers 400, each of theplurality of moving service servers 400 transmits an estimate, that is,information on a moving service fee, calculated from the propertyinformation to the real estate customer. This series of functions areperformed by the reverse auction processing section 160.

Subsequently, the system for providing a simulation of household itemsusing VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough according to thepresent invention may further include the contract processing section170.

The real estate customer may select a desired moving service server 400through his or her terminal with reference to information on theplurality of moving service fees. This “selection” is electronicallymade such that the contract processing section 170 may allow a movingservice contract to be made between the real estate customer and amoving service provider who manages the moving service server 400.
